I have a 2002 Ford F150 Supercrew and will be adding 3 subs(TBD) down the middle of the cab(from the back seat to the front). I have a Kicker KX 2500.1 to power the subs and a Kicker 850.4 to power the components. Any suggestions on a great sounding component set up? I have been looking at the Infinity Kappa Perfect 6.1..... MB Quartz QSF 216 ......Boston Acoustics Pro60. Any suggestions or recommendations???? Thanks! |

What kind of sound are you looking for? All of the speakers you listed in your original post are on the brighter side. Is this what you're going for or would prefer a speaker that isn't too bright or harsh? |

I want something that is going to sound good. The truck is not a daily driver and I take it to truck/car shows only. So I want something that will sound really good when showing the truck, but not cost me a second mortgage I have heard the Boston's before and they sounded pretty good |

The Boston's aren't bad. I would pass on the MB's and the Infinity's. There's lots of great brands out there though. What's your budget? |

I recently heard the Diamond Hex's and they are quite nice. |

"$600 for front and rears" forget the rears. since u already have that zx850.4, get 2 sets of comps for the front!! that would sound amazing. |

apparently you would forget about them... 1) do you have 6x8s all around? and 2)if so..Pioneer Premier TS-D802P sound great. me mand a budy just put them in his 2000 focus hatchback with 2 12" premier TS-W3001D4. sounds like a concert. |
